I find it interesting how you mention Obama's pledge in a debate to threaten to pull out of NAFTA as a mark against him - while being so much more lenient to Clinton - when that pledge was in response to a specific question by Tim Russert asking if he would pull out, and Clinton made the pledge (in response to the same question) literally 20 or 30 seconds before Obama did.I personally think that neither candidate would have gone quite so far on their own initiative, but with the pushing of the American press to take a yes-or-no stand on the question, neither could say "no" and still remain credible among working-class voters.
As loathsome as I find the Republican party's planks on most issues, such that I expect to vote for whichever Democratic candidate gets the nod from that fractious party, the populist pandering of Senators Obama and Clinton (both of whom surely know better) is quite depressing. Hence, my support is at best tepid, and cooling further as they race to the bottom.
The failure of Hillary Clinton to stand up for her husband's legacy and admit to her own past with regards to trade is immensely troubling. How can she possibly be a viable candidate after so often and blatantly lying about her past? Dick Morris has made quite clear on his own commentary that Hillary was a major supporter of NAFTA. The Daily Kos and other liberal hate groups truly have bought the party.
Finally The Economist has raised this important issue - Thanks!
What happened to the centrist understanding of the Clinton years when 'Democrat' and 'Trade Deal' could co-exist in the same sentence without the word 'blasts' in between them? Unfortunately one of the side effects of the polarization of American politics is that sensible debate is lost in the bid to smear the other side. Not that the Clinton years were a golden age of sensible debate, but post-Bush, it's just gotten worse.
What a paradoxal situation? USA once the forerunner of free international trade, where its producers had competitive edge and other countries were mainly the consumers of US goods, now abandons the basic tenet of globalisation when it is loosing in international market. However, any substantial retreat from the international free trade rules will of course hurt US more than now. This is the result of globalising world where the global financial and economic power is shifting to Asia from the West.
Reza S. if you actually believe that environmental and labour standards are the real reason for the Obama-Clinton opportunism you are sadly mistaken. These are often pretexts for scuttling trade deals by people who are oppossed to trade liberalization and capitalism in general, like leftist Green Parties, or by demagogues trying to gain a short term political advantage without alienating businessmen, like Clinton and Obama. They have realized they cannot win an argument on the economic merits, so they resort to these tactics. There is a case to be made for certain environmental standards and even politcal freedoms being made conditions of trade deals, but labour standards are just a way to destroy a developing foreign nation's comparative advantage. It imposes a subjective determination by a rich country to forgo economic growth in favor of other social values on a developing country that has not escaped a state of necessity. The bottom line is rich countries do not want to have to work as hard to compete with less developed countries, therefore, they condemn the Third World to squalor.While your concerns over the environment and humanity are legitimate, they are not applicable to the Colombian trade deal. Colombia's impact upon the American economy and the environment is minimal. The deal on the other hand will greatly help or if it fails greatly injure Columbia. The deal is being held up because of two forms of political opportunism. First, it is a symbolic attack upon foreign trade meant to appeal to those hit hardest by the decline of manufacturing. Second, the protection of union members is a poison pill for Colombia and meant to placate a small lobby of powerful unions in this country and a few leftists who do not realize the necessities that come with fighting a vicious counter-insurgency.Whether Obama and Clinton are actually against trade liberalization does not really matter. Their conduct and speeches are poisoning the debate by giving air to the crackpot views of Lou Dobbs. If they continue their current rhetoric, trade deals even with good environmental and political aspects will not pass.
I laughed to myself when I read that Pelosi was using the Columbian Trade issue as a bargaining chip. It's never been surprising to me to hear that most American's fear ideas like free trade. I wouldn't be surprised to find that most American's don't know the merits of free trade versus the "Mechanism and Protectionist" ideas of days long gone. Clinton flip-flops on trade issues? So it ain't so...
Free trade without environmental and labour standards is bad for capitalism and bad for the planet. Neither Obama nor Clinton are professing protectionism, just a more sustainable global trade policy. McCain, for all of his rhetoric, is also of the same mind. For the common good, the cost of Chinese pollution must be factored into the price of their goods and ours.
The rhetoric on trade and immigration is akin to training a hunting dog to find coyote traps. I suppose I'm not surprised that politicians are leery of making voters feel less victimized but it's a little frustrating watching a University of Chicago lecturer and a Clinton demagogue this way.
lesslunacy and mke make salient points.
The frustrating part is the lack of substantive dialouge coming from both sides of the aisle and the media generally. Lou Dobbs' "War on the Middle Class" and "Red China Rising" graphics give fuel to middle and low-income American's fears as to the "evils" of global trade.
Several months (actually over a year), The Economist ran an article about the town of Galax, Va, and the hard truths of globalization (http://www.economist.com/displaystory.cfm?story_id=8548661). Nowhere else, ever, have I read an article concerning assistance to those Americans affected by these hard truths. No politican has mentioned it, to my knowledge. This would seem to be such a relevant point! Yet, where is dialouge, the discussion?
Politics is the problem of the jobless, not trade.
I dont see why there should be an issue with Republicans supporting the trade agreement with Colombia for foreign policy related reasons. Economics has long been seen by many in the world as a vehicle to advance a nation's foreign policy goals, and are rightfully seen so. I don't think anyone is saying that we shouldn't place trade embargos on Iran for political reasons. Free trade is certainly an admirable and intelligent goal. Accomplishing it while simultaneously snubbing an enemy is even better.
Honestly, the Republicans and Democrats are not that different in trade policies. Sure the campaign rhetoric gives the allusion to a big difference when in reality there is little. It was Bill Clinton, a Democrat, who deployed NAFTA in the first place, not a Republican. The current Republican president hasn't done anything so special for America. A war financed by debt has help pushed the dollar to ridiculously low levels. People can give part thanks Bush for higher prices at Wal-Mart.
Our economy naturally evolves: from agriculture, to industrial, and now service. There was an NLRB case where the labor union sued the cement mixer truck for lost jobs. Developing nations selling textile goods to an accademically trained world corporate headquarters should not be veiwed as a detriment. With comparative advantages, corn and sugar (both ingredients in ethonal) should be traded with little or no tariff, creating a positive sum game.
With record ethonal and agricultural profits, why do farmers need price supports. With advancements in fertilizers, there is no longer a need to pay them not to grow on part of their land. Farming subsidies should be grandfathered out: Hold government payments at their nominal level and do not give future inflation additions.
Happy Arabian New Year: It is time for the squirel to gather nuts in preparation for the dark seasons.
I wonder who will be to blame if Democrats take the White House and prices for goods at Wal-Mart and other discount stores rise as a result of broken trade arrangements? This would help lower-income individuals how?
I wish the politicans would get real on perhaps the most important economic issue of the 21st century.

Wingate receives National Recognition for Community Service
Wingate, N.C. – As colleges across the country honor their graduates this commencement season, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) honored Wingate University as a leader among institutions of higher education for their support of volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement. Wingate University was admitted to the 2010 President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for engaging its students, faculty and staff in meaningful service that achieves measurable results in the community. This is the third year in a row that the University has received this honor.
The Corporation for National and Community Service, which has administered the Honor Roll since 2006, admitted a total of 641 colleges and universities for their impact on issues from literacy and neighborhood revitalization to supporting at-risk youth. Of that total, 511 were named to the Honor Roll, 114 received the recognition of Honor Roll with distinction, 11 were identified as finalists and six received the Presidential Award.
Wingate students logged more than 15,000 hours of community service and raised over $14,000 in 2010. This year's honor is based on several projects including volunteering at Carolina Equine Rescue & Assistance, a horse rescue farm in Union County. Students raised awareness during Hunger and Homelessness Week by working at a community shelter in Monroe, organizing a food pantry and serving meals.
Alternative spring break opportunities enabled student volunteers to help the homeless in Washington, D.C., work with Habitat for Humanity in Ocala, Fla., assist a food bank in Charleston, S.C. and work with children in Palmetto, Ga. A Social Justice Sewing Group met weekly for various sewing projects to benefit the community, like Christmas stockings, mini felt stuffed animals and puppets.
"As members of the class of 2011 cross the stage to pick up their diplomas, more and more will be going into the world with a commitment to public service and the knowledge that they can make a difference in their communities and their own lives through service to others, thanks to the leadership of these institutions," said Patrick A. Corvington, chief executive officer of CNCS. "Congratulations to Wingate University and its students for their dedication to service and commitment to improving their local communities. We salute all the Honor Roll awardees for embracing their civic mission and providing opportunities for their students to tackle tough national challenges through service."
Wingate University
Founded in 1896, Wingate University is a private comprehensive university with more than 2,300 students on two campuses in Wingate and Matthews, North Carolina. The University offers 34 undergraduate majors, 37 minors and career concentrations, numerous pre-professional programs, graduate degrees in business, accounting, physician assistant studies and sports administration, and doctorates in pharmacy and education.
Wingate students gain the tools and support they need to excel in academics and apply that learning toward an extraordinary career and life. The campus community offers in-class learning, out-of-class experiences, strong mentors, a competitive yet caring environment and rewarding community service opportunities for a complete educational experience.
Wingate student athletes compete in 19 NCAA Division II sports, and the University has won the South Atlantic Echols Athletic Excellence Award for the past five years.

This article needs additional citations for verification. (May 2007) |
Legislation (or "statutory law") is law which has been promulgated (or "enacted") by a legislature or other governing body or the process of making it.[1] (Another source of law is judge-made law or case law.) Before an item of legislation becomes law it may be known as a bill, and may be broadly referred to as "legislation", while it remains under consideration to distinguish it from other business. Legislation can have many purposes: to regulate, to authorize, to proscribe, to provide (funds), to sanction, to grant, to declare or to restrict. It may be contrasted with a non-legislative act which is adopted by an executive or administrative body under the authority of a legislative act or for implementing a legislative act.[2]
Under the Westminster system, an item of primary legislation is known as an Act of Parliament after enactment.
Legislation is usually proposed by a member of the legislature (e.g. a member of Congress or Parliament), or by the executive, whereupon it is debated by members of the legislature and is often amended before passage. Most large legislatures enact only a small fraction of the bills proposed in a given session.[3] Whether a given bill will be proposed and is generally a matter of the legislative priorities of government.
Legislation is regarded as one of the three main functions of government, which are often distinguished under the doctrine of the separation of powers. Those who have the formal power to create legislation are known as legislators; a judicial branch of government will have the formal power to interpret legislation (see statutory interpretation); the executive branch of government can act only within the powers and limits set by the law.
Latest revision[edit]
The function and procedures are primarily the responsibility of the legislature. However, there are situations where legislation is made by other bodies or means, such as when constitutional law or secondary legislation is enacted. Such other forms of law-making include referendums, orders in council or regulations. The term legislation is sometimes used to include these situations, or the term primary legislation may be used to exclude these other forms.
Dead letter[edit]
The phrase "dead letter" refers to legislation that has not been revoked, but that has become inapplicable or obsolete or is no longer enforced.
See also[edit]
- ^ See Article 289(3) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union
- ^ Wim Voermans (December 2009). "Is the European Legislator after Lisbon a real Legislature?". Legislacao Cadernos de Ciencia de Legislacao 50: 391–413 [402].
Within the category of legal acts provided for by the TFEU, a distinction is made between legislative acts and non-legislative acts. Legislative acts are decisions adopted under the ordinary or special legislative procedure (Article 289(3) of the TFEU) and non-legislative acts are decisions that are adopted pursuant to delegation or for the purpose of implementing a legislative act (Articles 35 See Article 288 of the TFEU, last 290 and 291 of the TFEU)

Home > Birthday Poems > Funny Birthday Poems
Great funny birthday poems don't just make birthday boys and girls laugh — they also leave them with a BIG smile that can last all day. Take a look below — you'll find lots of BIG laughs and smiles here.
One of the best times to make people laugh at themselves is their birthday. Any age is fodder for humor. A poem with a simple joke or witty turn of phrase is enough to amuse anyone. But pick a memorable verse — a birthday is, after all, a special day in somebody's life.
Choose a poem below that best brings out your sense of humor in your message. Important: go the serious route if the birthday boy or girl can't take a joke.
Happy birthday to you.
You live in a zoo.
You look like a monkey.
And you smell like one too.
Even though this message comes to you a little late, the wish it brings for happiness is good on any date.
Happy belated birthday.
I picked it myself, the choice was clear.
Once you see it, I'm expecting a cheer!
I know you will need them, on your many adventures.
Inside the box is a new set of dentures!
Happy birthday, old fart!
Today is your birthday.
Don't pull your hair.
Look in the mirror — nature was fair.
Not a day over twenty.
I'm kidding! You're plenty.
Don't mean to burst your bubble, but stop asking for trouble.
You know what I mean, when you drink that caffeine.
What should I bring?
Just give me a ring.
Elephant or clown?
I knew you would frown.
Today I turned fifty.
I feel really good.
My body's still working quite well, thanks. (Touch wood).
My hair's not too grey, my wrinkles are few, I can still touch my toes with my knuckles. (Can you?)
I'm quite full of vigour, just getting ripe. (But they now print the phone book in much smaller type.)
My hearing's still good.
What's that you say?
Speak clearly, don't mumble, your voice wafts away.
Inside this old body I'm still young, but then if life starts at forty, I'm really just ten.
Just because you're 50,
don't despair, oh no.
Overnight, you won't discover
you've lost your get up and go.
Nor will you become all wrinkled,
nor ache from head to toe.
So even though you're ripening,
don't regard it as a blow,
you won't suddenly look decrepit....
...because that happened long ago!
A birthday belated, I know you have waited.
Has it been another year?
My apologies are sincere.
When I realized I forgot, my old stomach formed a knot.
Our adventures came to mind, and your deeds that are so kind.
Hope you had the greatest time, entertained by a funny mime.
A belated birthday wish with the most delicious dish.
God grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

#1 vs. #1 In the Super Bowl
At the Hall of Fame's website, I came across a post that reminded me of a little research project I had wanted to do but never got around to it... As you probably already know by now, the #1 seeds from each conference have not faced each other in the Super Bowl since 1993, when the Cowboys beat the Bills in SB XXVIII, and in the 19 full playoffs since 1990 (when the league expanded the playoffs to the current 12-team format), the 1-vs-1 matchup has only taken place twice -- 1991 & 1993. Much has been made about this phenomenon, almost to the point that certain people said it was actually a bad thing to be a #1 seed (that HoF page said "there was a slim chance of the Colts and Saints meeting in South Florida in February"), so I wondered, is there something about the current format that discourages #1 seeds from facing off in the Big Game (i.e., what we're seeing since 1990 is to be expected), or are we in the midst of a random stretch where the #1 seeds simply haven't happened to make it very often, and a correction is to be expected in the future?
To find an answer, I did what I usually do in situations like these: I built a Monte Carlo simulation. This time, I simmed the 2009 NFL schedule after assigning a random SRS-style strength rating to each team (just like Doug did here), and used the following equation to find the probability of the home team winning a game:
Home team prob. of winning =~ 1 / (1 + e^(-.438 - .0826*diff))
Where "diff" is the home team's true strength minus the visiting team's true strength. I ran through every game in the season, all the way through the Super Bowl (tracking how often the game featured two #1 seeds), in 19-year blocks, and repeated this process 2,500 times. Here's the distribution that resulted:
1-vs-1 in 19 Yrs | Count | Pct |
0 | 36 | 1.4% |
1 | 168 | 6.7% |
2 | 397 | 15.9% |
3 | 556 | 22.2% |
4 | 518 | 20.7% |
5 | 421 | 16.8% |
6 | 231 | 9.2% |
7 | 120 | 4.8% |
8 | 41 | 1.6% |
9 | 9 | 0.4% |
10 | 3 | 0.1% |
Overall, in the 47,500 simulated seasons, #1 took on #1 in the Super Bowl on 9,472 occasions, or 19.9% of the time. Compare that to the 10.5% observed rate we're looking at since 1990 and there's definitely been a drought in the real-life results -- but how improbable is the current 2-for-19 stretch? Well, in the 2,500 19-year blocks I simulated, a 2-for-19 run happened 397 times, or in 15.9% of the trials, making it the 4th-most-likely outcome behind 3-for-19, 4-for-19, and 5-for-19.
So the answer to the original question is that while what we're seeing now (at least before this weekend's games) is somewhat unlikely, it's certainly not as rare as some of the media coverage would have you believe. If these simulation results hold water, we should see an uptick in the rate of 1-vs-1 matchups at some point, but the simple truth is that the best team in a conference doesn't always make it to the Super Bowl, and the #1 seed isn't always the best team in the conference anyway. Besides, if one of the selling points of the NFL is its parity, is it even such a bad thing that the clear-cut most dominant teams in their respective conferences can only be expected to square off in the Super Bowl 20% of the time?

Venezuela: Should Chavez give direct payments?
Monday, January 28th, 2013Mary O'Grady poses the question, If Chávez believes the nation's oil billions belong to the people, why not give it to them directly?
Mr. Monaldi, along with Venezuelan economists Pedro Rodríguez and José Morales, have a better idea. In a paper published in September by the Center for Global Development, they propose offering Venezuelans a plan to replace many of the government's social programs and subsidies funded by oil revenue with direct, "universal, transparent and regular payments" to citizens.The authors argue that this "direct distribution mechanism" (DDM) would be a more equitable way to distribute the wealth from the country's vast oil reserves, and it would make Venezuelans better off. Marketing the idea to the electorate may be one of the few cards the political opposition has left to play.
Ah, but Hugo' been giving "regular payments" to the Chavistas, the Cubans, and his other cronies in Latin America.
Meanwhile, in the USA, we'll be debating Fair vs Fracking for the next 4 years.

At the Middletown Grange Fair, 4-H members from all throughout Bucks County gathered to showcase their animal projects. There were almost 600 animals at this year's fair, including alpacas, beef and dairy cattle, goats, poultry, rabbits and cavies, sheep, swine, and even a lone llama. Members worked with their animals all summer long to get themselves and their animals ready to enter these show rings. And what a show it was! These members could be seen using every available hour washing, clipping, and otherwise beautifying their animals and when these animals entered the ring you could tell that they were looking their very best.
The Central Bucks School District Art Show was held May 30th-June 1st at Mill Creek Elementary School in Warrington. The exhibition highlighted students of all levels in Central Bucks schools.
The Phillips' Mill Youth Art Show was held last month in New Hope, with participation from nine high schools submitting 79 pieces of artwork. The works included oil, acrylic, watercolor, collage, mixed media, graphite, etching and sculpture.

Just read here that I should be expecting att to push an upgrade to my phone, and that it will include Samsung Knox security software and a new locked bootloader. My phone is rooted, and I am worried that this update will jack things up. At least it would on the Iphones, I am relatively new to the android platform. I mainly rooted, because I wanted to set up a few tasker tasks. I haven't played with any roms yet. Should I not upgrade? does it un root your phone?
Yea if you want to stay rooted and to install ROMs, do not get this. Both exploits are confirmed to be patched. New exploits may be found, but no telling how long it may take. And if you are rooted, you can install a custom recovery and ROM and get the apps to SD card from an existing ROM
I currently have a rooted GS4, and I tried to get the software update just because I thought the Apps 2 SD feature was worth it. I completed the download, then at 26% of installation, it said Update Failed and rebooted. What do I do now? Edit: I tried updating again and it download then also stopped at 26% and said update failed. I really want this update, what do u do?
You would have to go back to stock to do the update.. it's probably failing when it sees a custom recovery or added system apps like su, or maybe a different build name if your on a custom Rom..
I am rooted, but I am on the stock rom. Do you think I should try flashing a stock rom? And if I should, will it erase all my data?
You don't take OTA updates while rooted. Just wait for the stock rooted ROM to become available and flash it from recovery
i Just updated my att S4 to the lastet any way that i can root it? or downgrade to be root? i am new in this plataform.... or i cant do nothing until get new root software
Unfortunately, I didn't follow this advice and now have the latest (unrooted) update Any advice for how to undo my error and get root back?
If they've patched the vulnerability used to get root you've just got to wait til a new one is found. That could be next week, next month, or never.

MIDDLESBORO, Ky. (AP) — A snake-handling pastor who appeared on the National Geographic television reality show "Snake Salvation" has died after being bitten by a snake during a weekend church service in Kentucky.
Jamie Coots was handling a rattlesnake at his Full Gospel Tabernacle in Jesus Name Church in Middlesboro when he was bitten on the hand Saturday night, another preacher, Cody Winn, told WBIR-TV (http://on.wbir.com/1cLrs8A ). After the bite, Coots dropped the snakes, but then picked them back up and continued on. Within minutes, Winn said Coots headed to the bathroom.
"He had one of the rattlers in his hand, he came over and he was standing beside me. It was plain view, it just turned its head and bit him in the back of the hand … within a second," Winn said.
When an ambulance arrived at the church at 8:30 p.m. Saturday, they were told Coots had gone home, the Middlesboro Police Department said in a statement. Contacted at his house, Coots refused medical treatment.
Emergency workers left about 9:10 p.m. that night. When they returned about an hour later, Coots was dead from a venomous snake bite, police added.
The snake-handling pastor's son, Cody Coots, told the television station his dad had been bit eight times before, but never had had such a severe reaction. The son said he had thought the bite would be just like all the others.
"We're going to go home, he's going to lay on the couch, he's going to hurt, he's going to pray for a while and he's going to get better. That's what happened every other time, except this time was just so quick and it was crazy, it was really crazy," Cody Coots said.
In January 2013, Coots was caught transporting three rattlesnakes and two copperheads through Knoxville, Tenn. Wildlife officials confiscated the snakes, and Coots pleaded guilty to illegally wildlife possession. He was given one year of unsupervised probation.

Sustained improvement with iloprost in a COPD patient with severe pulmonary hypertension. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 19201716 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Pulmonary hypertension is an important complication of COPD. A small subset of patients with COPD have severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) that is out of proportion to the mild increase in pulmonary arterial pressure observed commonly. Severe PH associated with COPD is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Treatment options in this group of patients are limited with no conclusive evidence of benefit when drugs approved for treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension are used. We describe a patient with severe PH associated with COPD who improved clinically and hemodynamically when treated with inhaled iloprost. The improvement was sustained for 2 years. Severe PH in patients with COPD needs to be recognized and novel treatment approaches considered. |

Dog-friendly Event Honors Memory of Local Girl
Event is a fundraiser for veterinary scholarship and other animal-friendly activities in Knoxville.
(May 2014 Knoxville, TN) -- Abby Gibson loved animals--especially horses. This caring 10-year old brought love and joy into every life--human and animal--she touched. Abby dreamed of one day going to UT College of Veterinary Medicine and becoming an animal doc. In the summer of 2010, Abby died from injuries received in a horseback riding accident.
To embrace her dreams, Abbys mother, Jennifer Gibson Boyle, created the Abby Gibson Veterinary Medicine Scholarship Endowment at UTCVM. To help raise funds for the endowment, Jennifer organized the Walk and Wag Dog Walk, a dog friendly family event held in Abby's memory. Proceeds from the third annual event will also benefit Humans and Animals Learning Together, Human Animal Bond in Tennessee, and the Knoxville Zoo's ZooFund for kids.
The walk took place June 7, 2014 from 10:00 a.m. 1:00 p.m. at Victor Ashe Park in Knoxville. Visit http://www.abbygibson.org/ for details.

Dog-FriendlyGreat American /\ Road TripTM Part 3by Tara Kain, Editor, DogFriendly.com
After a nice stay in Jackson Hole, Wyoming we were ready to hit the road again and head out to some of the most popular National Parks in the country. We were just not exactly sure how much if anything we could do with our dog at these parks. In general, National Parks are not known for being particularly pet-friendly. Most of these parks restrict pets to parking lots or the main roads, and typically do not allow dogs on any trails. I guess since we went there expecting the worst, we were pleasantly surprised at how many of the major attractions we could see with our dog. We were pretty much able to do what the majority of non-dog-toting tourists experience. Read on for more details...

mag release stiff
I got rid of this gun after a few years but sent back to springfield and they fixed it ejects a full 16 rd mag fairly normal. I have since bought another 5.25 inch comp model .40 and this one was super hard to eject a full mag but not impossible like my first one and also excess to slam a full mag into place so I decided to fix the problem myself this time. I removed the mag catch and cut a slightly angled edge to it and reinstalled and also removed about 1/8 inch of the follow in case the compressed mag spring was stacking to tight and both are better now, but the recut of the slide catch was the biggest gain which is what the factory had to do on my last one.
It's the angle of attach that the mag catch has that is the issue and some are worse than others and with so much pressure from an undersized/overstacked magazine when full and the bad angle is what caused some mags to be near impossible to eject. This new gun was as bad but still unacceptable to have to use 2 thumbs. I like figuring some things out but dang I hate when the company knows of the issue and with a slight tweek on manf equip could fix it so I don't have to have the quirks. |

I have shot about 1500 rounds through my XDM40 4.5" Shooting Remington, PMZ, Federal, so far. No jams, no failures. I keep it clean and we'll oiled. Whatever the problem was I think they worked it out.

Bucknell Professor Donates Engineering Books to FSU
According to Dr. Oguz Soysal, chair of FSU's Department of Physics, about 150 of these texts are quite new and cover almost all areas of electrical engineering. Soysal estimates their market value at about $6,774, but says the true replacement cost would be around $10,000.
"We typically spend around $3,000 from the engineering budget every year to purchase electrical engineering books for the Ort Library," Soysal says, adding that it would take FSU about three years to afford the value of the donated books.
Soysal and Aburdene first met in fall 1998, when Soysal joined Bucknell as a visiting faculty member. "We established a very good friendship throughout the years," Soysal says. "He has always been excited about our Collaborative Engineering Program. This is why he decided to donate the extra textbooks he is not currently using."
In addition, Soysal will visit the FSU campus to present a talk to students on Thursday, Oct. 24, entitled, "Who Wants to be an Engineer?" The talk will focus on what qualities, both personal and academic, are necessary for a successful career in engineering and the ways that engineers serve society on a daily basis.
Aburdene holds a B.S., MS. and Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut. His teaching specialties and research interests focus on computers and include such aspects as networks, processing, systems, design, instrumentation and measurement.
For more information about FSU's Collaborative Engineering Program, contact Soysal at (301) 687-4160 or email@example.com.

MIAMI — Trade negotiators approved a draft text Wednesday outlining the world's largest free-trade region, adopting a buffet-style version that allows countries to opt out of the more controversial clauses of the agreement.
The draft, pushed by Brazil and the United States, will be handed over to trade ministers from the 34 nations in the Americas, excluding Cuba. The ministers will start two days of meetings today to finish the text, which speaks in generalities and does not specify which parts of the proposed Free Trade Area of the Americas agreement countries could opt out of.
U.S. Trade Representative Robert Zoellick denied that the United States was backing away from creating an agreement that would tear down all trade barriers from Alaska to Argentina, which was how the FTAA was originally conceived. He called the buffet comparison inaccurate.
"I look at it as a full-course dinner, but each country has to decide how much to eat with each course," he told business leaders.
Brazilian Foreign Minister Celso Amorim said the draft recognizes that the 34 countries have many different interests in trade and may want to negotiate distinct topics.
"It's a victory for everybody," he told reporters.
Canada, Chile, Mexico and several Caribbean countries had pushed for a more specific FTAA text. Chilean officials criticized the draft, saying it will reduce the FTAA to a "minimum."
The United States and Brazil pushed to exclude certain sensitive areas from the FTAA agreement even before this week's talks began.
The Bush administration has tried to keep negotiations on cutting U.S. subsidies to American farmers at the global level through the World Trade Organization and not have them part of the FTAA. Brazil has done the same with discussions on investment and intellectual-property rights.
Amorim said that trying to push the United States to drop farm subsidies was like "believing in fairy tales."
The largest U.S. manufacturing industry group said the draft will likely only be a temporary setback from the goal of making a comprehensive free-trade area, noting it could be changed by top-level officials.
"This is not yet baked in the cake," said Frank Vargo of the National Association of Manufacturers.
The aid group Oxfam International called the draft a major achievement for poorer countries.
"The approval of the opt-in, opt-out version of the FTAA clearly is demonstrative of the new assertiveness of developing countries in trade negotiations," Oxfam spokesman Mark Fried said.
The FTAA proposal is drawing criticism from anti-globalization activists, a mix of environmentalists and union activists. More than 10,000 FTAA opponents are expected to march through Miami's streets Thursday.
Seven anti-globalization activists were arrested Wednesday and charged with burglary for using a Miami mansion to prepare for demonstrations, police said. Officers said they seized metal chains, gas masks, crowbars and slingshots.

One of the biggest obstacles to renewable energy deployment in the US is overcoming the utility and AHJ review process. Long processing times leads to higher costs, customer and integrator frustrations, and is just generally bad for business. The intentional slow-playing of solar PV deployment by the utilities is further hampering the deployment of sorely needed renewable energy.
Check out this article to see how one state is coping with the high penetration of solar PV in its territory...

Fishing in Austria's Rivers & Lakes
Carinthia: Trophy Fish from the River Gail
The Gail is one of the most pristine waters of the Alpine area. The river - actually still a torrent - squeezes through deep gorges before opening up into delightful meadows, then plunging back into the depths of the Lesachtal Valley. Besides the natural beauty of the river landscape, the Gail is of drinking water quality and the fishing pressure is low. Six tributaries await amateur anglers with large quantities of natural offspring, which means that artificial restocking is not required here. In addition to the dominant brown trout, the rainbow trout and the reintroduced greyling are at home in the Gail and its tributaries. The "Bärfalle", the trophy route for fly fishermen, is rarely touched due to its difficult accessibility. This area, thanks to its unspoiled state, offers the chance to make quite a remarkable catch.Further information: www.lesachtal.com
SalzburgerLand: Hohe Tauern Mountain Water
The Grossarl Valley offers plenty of opportunities for anglers on the Grossarl Ache, from Grossarl to the Hüttschlag valley head in the National Park Hohe Tauern. The crystal clear mountain water from the Schöder Valley and from the Keeskogel Glacier offers an excellent home for local fish, with quiet river passages, big pools, rapids, rock waterfalls and gravel banks, surrounded by lush alpine meadows and pastures. What's more and unique in the province of Salzburg, since 1998 a special rarity only seldom encountered - the silvery gleaming alpine salmon (up to 1,20m long) - has been kept in the Ötzlsee Lake at the head of the Grossarl Valley.Further information: www.grossarltal.info
Tirol: Numerous Fishing Waters in the Tannheimer Tal
Fishing season starts on 1st April in the Tannheimer Tal. An excellent fish population in marvellous mountain scenery turns the Tirolean high valley into a real hot tip. Moreover, most of the fishing waters are not in private possession. With a fishing permission and upon presentation of a sports fishing passport, you may therefore fish until your bait runs out.Further information: www.tannheimertal.com

NWAR: Trench Warfare
Detective Nwar gets his hands dirty for a political campaign.
4.42 / 5.00 2,956 ViewsThank you very much to all for the interest to The Lost Gift. Thanks to all mails and ideas to shink and put it on NG. Wich I will...but the movie is 30% Japanese and 50% Turkish...for all that I need dubs (the voice actors are ready) and make subtitle for you lot...sorry about the crap intro at the beggining but I did not think the Trailer would be liked this much...I meant no disrespect for the viewer nor my own work...
The Lost Gift will be with you all soon...but I want to do this properly this time and I requre more support and blessings from ya all...
Alright, alright....(deep breath)
you win, your flash looks to be on par with Brackenwood.....I cannot deny it any longer.....
BUT, you mention that you may not submit this work of art into NG, and this saddens me. How am I supposed to see the entire thing when it comes out? are you going to break it into parts or what?
Better yet, just tell me and the rest of us the site.
Again, I have said this only to one other, YOU ARE GOD!
I always tell the same thing to people who even mention Brackenwood..My work is ok to some but Adam Phillips is a god in flash animation I am no compare.
im entitled to my opinion as i have backed it up
.........okay here goes the rant.. in your responses to this piece of work you post the link to "facebook" where you will release your movie as its "too big" for NG. when people tell you to release it in segments you say i tried,,,, but it made the quality really bad and sound really bad........ WHICH ISNT TRUE... okay so your in charge of like a money making scheme on facebook and make money through advertisements for every hit you get... secondly "you didnt make this" if you had the artistic talent to make this the preloader would have been alot better rather than random untidy writing and the Bull picture......... also the fact that this wasnt made using flash is funny to me. well ALL I CAN SAY IS on NG i believed advertising for a different website was against the rules... which you have clearly done no matter which way you look at it.. you also claim the "movie" is finished and ready for submission on facebook.,, but have not yet submitted it.... to increase the amount of hits youre getting perhaps with people checking to see if its out yet.... i dont care who made this it really wasnt that great. however i can tell you this was a team effort using real animation softwear with a proper proffessional script, the way it was actually a trailer to something else demonstrates this... also a trailer is generally made and released to introduce a product your working on not one youve finished... WHY WAS THE TRAILER NOT "POOR QUALITY" due to the editing to form the trailer "from the feature length movie you made alone....... which would have taken years..... (sarcasm) If you had made this movie you would have presented it better,,,,,,, your talent as an artist is poor.... and the responses you made to the reviews,,,, basically everyone who has reviewed demonstrates you are trying to advertise an external sight to NG i just hope it comes out where you ripped this from....,, or did you pay ppl in a poor country to make this BS so you could make some money online?
WOW...you have issues...I can send any kind of proof to anyone that I am the animator and this is my own work...but I dont understand what triggered you and why are you so mad?
making dreams possible
You just said that its not as good as Brackenwood.
But you are mistaking. Its just as good!
I tell you why:
1 Its another style
2 it shows you have mastered pretty much every technique there is
3 it is of feature length
4 you are persuing a dream
5 your dream is becoming reality
Comparing this with Brackenwood is like comparing Manga with pixar or Disney with Pokemon. These are style issues. Objective opinion you are allmost there.
Go one and complete it and it will surely get you somewhere!!!
I think in terms of quality for this movie and its size a 9 but because of doing the complete movie and making a feature it does not only takes talent it takes stamina and the will to complete a project and for that i 'll give you a 10!!!
Thank you for those word but I still am no mach for Adam Phillps. He inspires me ALOT but I have a long way there I must practice everyday for 8 hours for years...but Ill do my best to reach him and I d be glad for him to critic my work.
Extremely good!
I'm going to head to that link and watch what you have up so far, because that looks very, very interesting. How such graphics can be made from macromedia flash is amazing, maybe even better than brackenwood(I'll have to watch the whole thing to determine that). The major thing that most flashes lack is a significant story line, and this obviously has that covered. But yeah, you should try to get this on newgrounds, it will be met with emense success.
I am glad abaout the storyline it went around real fine ,but trust me when I say this and I am the animator that this film, and its looks is definately NOT better than Brackenwood that gut Adam Phillips is the man...He is the BEST flash animator ever.
looks awesome
great animation. and it certanly doesnt look boring. but maybe you spoiled it a bit?The black dude whose throat was slit didnt look like a random generic guard or something.dunno maybe im wrong. anyway i want to see it!!
AhAHHAHA...no that black dude is a random pirate :)

You can format a DOS PCMCIA memory card on a SPARC or IA based platform. The steps are similar, except that instead of a SunOS file system being placed on the PCMCIA memory card, a DOS file system, either MS-DOS or NEC-DOS, is put on the file system.
Formatting a PCMCIA memory card erases any pre-existing content.
Quit File Manager.
File Manager automatically displays a formatting window when you insert an unformatted PCMCIA memory card. To avoid the window, quit File Manager. If you prefer to keep File Manager open, quit the formatting window when it appears.
Make sure the PCMCIA memory card is not write-protected.
Write-protection is controlled by a small slide switch in the end of the PCMCIA memory card.
Insert the PCMCIA memory card.
Make sure the PCMCIA memory card is completely inserted. It must drop down into the drive.
Invoke formatting.
$ fdformat -v -U [density-options convenience-options] |
-v |
Verifies whether the PCMCIA memory card was formatted correctly. |
Unmounts the PCMCIA memory card, if it is mounted. |
density-options |
If the drive density is 1.44 Mbytes, density-options are: |
-d |
Formats for MS-DOS. |
-t nec -M |
Formats at 1.2 Mbytes for NEC-DOS. |
Lists all the options to the fdformat command, but does not format the PCMCIA memory card. |
convenience-options |
-e |
Ejects the PCMCIA memory card when done formatting. |
-f |
Does not ask for confirmation before formatting. |
-b label |
Name for the PCMCIA memory card. label must be eight characters or less, upper or lower case. |
-z |
Lists all the options to the fdformat command, but does not format the PCMCIA memory card. |
If you try to format a 720 Kbyte (DD) diskette for 1.44 Mbytes, fdformat will not stop you unless you include the -v option. With the -v option, fdformat will format the diskette, but the verification will catch the error and notify you with the following message: fdformat: check diskette density, I/O error
The fdformat command displays a confirmation message, indicating the type of formatting to be performed:
Formatting 1.44 M in /vol/dev/rdiskette0/unformatted Press return to start formatting floppy. |
Select one of the options in the table below.
To ... |
Press ... |
Confirm the type of formatting |
Return (unless you used the -f option in the previous step, in which case no confirmation is necessary) |
Cancel formatting |
Control-c |
As the formatting progresses, a series of dots is displayed. As the verification progresses, a series of Vs appears beneath the dots. When the series stops, the formatting is complete and the PCMCIA memory card is ready for use on a DOS system.
Use the volrmmount command with the -i option to notify Volume Management that the memory card is inserted.
$ volrmmount -i pcmem0 |
Volume Management mounts the PCMCIA memory card under /pcmem/pcmem0.

The place: The Empire Room, in the Art & Home Center at the New York State Fairgrounds. This a full-service bar, open each day during the fair. It's been run for 20 years by Ron Ross, owner of Twin Trees Too, and the on-site manager, Melissa Carelli.
Behind the bar: Maria Carelli, bartender
The drink: Muddled Off the Midway
It's a fruity, refreshing drink topped off with club soda and flavored with sweet tea vodka.
What's in it:
1½ ounce Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka
1/2 ounce Three Olives Raspberry Vodka
splash of sour mix
3 lemon wedges, for muddling
club soda, to top
lemon slices and cherry, for garnish
Ingredients of note: Muddled lemon wedges: Bartenders muddle fruit, using a wooden stick shaped like a miniature baseball bat, to release the aromatic oils and juice. Sweet tea: It's a hot cocktail ingredient these days, so it was inevitable that someone made a sweet tea-flavored vodka.
One more thing: When it's not State Fair time, The Empire Room hosts about 50 weddings, banquets and other events each year.
